Does this mean an approved inspection authority has to sign off the COC ?

What happens to to all the IE's and MIE's ?

Old document dated 2009.

The application fee ( according to the grapevine ) is no more R120, but R360.

The reason you need to supply the documents is so DOL knows what to put on your registration certificate.

[Derlyn]

Apologies. The new fee has doubled. Now R240 instead of R120.

Like I said, heard from grapevine, haven't confirmed personally.

This is actaully rather sad, I was doing a search for something and this is where I found the info.

Now that I am ready to start signing off a few solar installations (hence the this thread) i did a bit of research looking for some ideas.

When the COC/test report was reduced to one page, it got my back up and thought it was a terrible idea, however as I engage with other electricians and engineers (wish I could get eveyone on one platform) and we discuss the better ways to expand the COC without changing it,

We just use the COC/test test report as it is itended and referecne sections to addtional pages, which I would assume was the intention.

You can add as many pages/photo's as you feel may be needed to the COC but at least the 2 page COC sorts out when you install an Aircon vs the 4 pages from previous

Yip it was a ball ache filling outa 4 page COC/test report.

Any ideas on how we should go forward with the solar section of the test report ?

At this point in time, I do anitial for the electrical work, then add a supplimentary for the self generation section.

I have thought about starting a whattsapp group with invited registered electrians only to discuss solar challenges.

There are a bunch of groups already which I joined, however I am yet to find one to engage.
